Answer:

Diya asks me if I can lend her a book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Diya say to me, "can you lend me a book?

--------------------- -----------------------------------

Reporting Speech Reported Speech

=> The reporting speech is present, so no change of tense will be done in the reported speech.

=> It is an interrogative "helping - verb" question so the conjunction used will be "if/whether"

=> Question mark to be omitted.

=> Can remains the same as "can" since the reporting speech is present.

=> Interchanging of "can" and "you".

=> Interrogative sentence so we can replace say with ask

The given dialogue in indirect form will be:

=> Diya asks me if I can lend her a book.
